You just know Robin spent hours opening and closing that door beaming from ear to ear with pride 🤗 true craftsmen
Top job.
With the advent of so much computer assisted machinery taking over many jobs (or parts of) it's good to see tradesmen who still have skills deserving of praise.
This chap is awesome. I've watched loads of his videos, and learned so much.
@@lewispewsey6843 Clevett, his name is under the video.
@@lewispewsey6843 You misspelt both his names lol
The matching grain on each of the double sliding doors is lovely...looks really well
Great building tips plus a few bonus dad jokes love it!
Magnet - blinding idea 💡 👍👍👍😉
Tim Margereson . Make sure it’s one of Rodians neodinium ones 😆👌🏼🧱👍🏼
Good work robin
Another great video from skill builder I love the little magnet tip at the end. I really like those doors and it's nice to see you chose a walnut rather than everyone's go to door - oak.
Great timing! I’m currently building an extension. Ordered the kitchen then realised the utility door would open on to the units so decided to make it a pocket door. I’ve ordered a “JEXIS Pocket door ejector” so when you come to close the door you simply push the edge of door and it pops out instead of trying to get your fingers in to close it. Hoping it works! Love how you’ve finished that single door off. The brush strips are a great idea. Looks smart!
I absolutely these doors and I love the "SIM" kit operation. Definitely gives the whole setup a certain panache.
Very nice
Great job very fiddley I rember doing something similar years ago I left a pocket out behind the architraves so you could get to adjust the door and then cover up with the moulding but that's a real good system you have especially with the gaskets 🤟👋🇮🇪☘️ stay safe 👍
Really superb work . They sound so similar to the doors on the enterprise . "Live long and prosper ".
This guy loves wood and working with wood. Great craftsman to learn from.
Love the doors 🚪
Yeah Jim Morrison. Riders in the Storm
Skill Builder very good 😂
Again top craftsmanship.
Another job completed perfectly. A video on how to create the pocket would be a great idea.👍
Love the Benny Hill bit at the end😄
Proper Job.
Class carpentry work, beautiful workmanship well done Robin and Stay Safe lads
Those doors are gorgeous. Very nice.
Fantastic job. Absolutely nowhere to hide with those doors as well. They have to be spot on or will look a mile out
Gorgeous doors Robin. Really like the idea of sliding doors
Spot on as always 👌🏼🧱👍🏼
i loctite all the screws that go into that kind of solid door after pre drill, stunning results again guys
Love the choice of unique walnut doors makes such a difference from your usual white primed doors! One thing I would add about the pocket doors would be how far they return into the partition. Once you router your handles in on both sides it's best to have the door sticking enough to see the handle so that you're able to reach the handle on both sides of the door to close it. It's works better than trying to fish for the top of the door everytime you want to close it. Nothing wrong with what you've done its something I've come across fitting them. Top work as always!
I watch a bunch of vids of luxury boats on Aquaholic, and for obvious reasons pocket doors are very popular where space is at such a premium. The usual answer is to have a flush fit pop out handle on the edge face of the door. i.e. you push the top with your thumb and it swings a handle out below that you can grab and pull. Alternatively there are sprung loaded pop out handles for the edge and there are even doors you can push and the whole door springs out, presenting the handles on the main face. I'm a bit surprised you don't know about these hardware solutions if you fit these types of doors often.
Edit: Just noticed the thread necromancy :-)
Them lidl airbags are as handy as a small saucepan. Never leave home without them.
I carry a saucepan in my van and I have no idea why. Perhaps one day I will twat somebody with it, like Yom and Jerry, in which case it is an offensive weapon.
Such a craftsman. Love watching theses videos. The house is looking amazing 👍
Stunning Robin.
What? Robin is stunning, or the doors?
Tip: add a small piece of plastic over the screw heads before you fill them and you avoid having to dig out the filler from the screw head. We do this when adding abalone inlays over screw heads on guitars.
Well done nice job mate
As always a top job from Robin! I don't think I'd have the patience to deal with that sim kit though!
Will be interesting to see what type of handle they go for! As with a traditional handle you won't be able to full close the door (or push it into the reveal) as the handle will hit the wall and leave 3-4 inches showing. Also, with the door fully in the reveal how will you pull it out?
Check out the video on my channel where I fit the handles your questions will be answered!!
Thank you for the tips and the inspiration! Great looking doors! ❤️
Another great video guys. Will you show us the doors when they are finished to see how the doors and handles will work? Thanks again
I have a video on my channel with the handles installed
That's great. Thanks again Robin
Awesome video Guy's, great tips they are always a fiddle to put in, hope you guys are all well all the best Tony
New to the channel. Great stuff.
Well I’ve been in the job 40 years this year and I’ve learned something with the magnet trick great stuff 👍

@@cliveramsbotty6077 its ok you cant help it!
Great job I love it👍👍
Those doors look fantastic. Are the handles are fitted on the door face? If so, don't they restrict the door(s) from opening fully?
Hi Robin,
Amazing work as always. You have been inspiring me to start my own DIY pocket door project innthe UK. However, straight at the beginning I've encountered an issue with my cavity wall width. The cavity in our walls is only 6cm deep. There is no system that works with that. The minimum I've found is 100mm.
Of course, I've reconsidered maybe we shouldn't have pocket sliding but just wanted you as you may have an idea.
Any practical information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much!
Keep up the good work. Keep those vids coming. Cheers 👍
Thanks for that robin,
Hi Robin, I really enjoy the insights in your build. I found it interesting that Roger included a tiny snippet of your conversation with your wife (I presume) in the video. On that theme, I have a request for a video on the Capel build (maybe after completion) is a video from your wife & family's view. What did they want, what do you think you are crazy for doing, what did they not understand the reason for but now could not live without, etc?
Great idea, I will try to do this, thanks for your comment
Had to do a pocket door with a hanging sliding door track a couple of years ago, after seeing what you did with the lining and architrave you’ve just made me smile as that’s what I did to hide the brackets and pocket. Nice to know when your own work is in the right direction 😅 Is the brush strip a generic product or was it in the kit for the running gear?
Hi guys, nice work. What is name of the drill at 4:00? thx
I was wondering that too!
This video was great, it made realise i will never fit pocket doors on any job haha
I didn't like the doors when on the table/trestles but in situ they're gorgeous. I really have no design imagination at all
What about door handles? Recessed notches would work better?
looks great robin but when the pocket door closes shut and its flush with the frame how will you get your fingers into the door pull
They have special caps. First make a hole and stick that cover caps
@@ru_ss5415 the door edge is in the sliding door pocket
thats the only problem with picket doors you have to put the stop inside the pocket to revile the handle which limits the opening size
Think he did a video installing the fixtures, there's three finger pulls, one on the frame edge and one on each face (bigger pulls on the face obviously), so door fully recesses into the pocket.
What stops the doors moving at the bottom when there closed?Is there a rail or something.Great Video Robin keep them coming.
It's just adjustable plastic like U shape.
I made a walnut section that is grooved, the kit comes with plastic peices but there not for me!!!
Nice job and doors.
Question. Although the doors look good flush when open how does one who isn’t the tall close them if they’re flush into the pocket.
Hope that makes sense
Great video thanks. What filler do you use for the screws it's a big hole to fill and I have struggled in the past with Brad nail filler expanding. Use a 2part now but would like to know what you recommend. Thanks
Mr clevett have you changed the blade in your hikoki skill saw? Which blade would you recommend??
Robin, Can you able to show me how you have installed the single door pocket. It's something I would like to install. But don't no where to start.
Look out Robin, Darth Vader is behind you!
First of all, look amazing,
However, I have a question, ....I am putting a pocket door in a garage conversion,I am using a Henderson pocket door, the manual gives the height for the rough opening, but is this before or after the finished floor? First time doing a pocket door and any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks and stay safe !!
I thought the door are not supposed completely flush. Once you fit a handle the door will out by the size of the handle.
Can i get a Pocket door for a 80mm wall stud ? Left side will be a solid brick wall so no stud needed so gain a bit . Sooooo, 5mm - 40mm door - 5mm leaves 30 mm for p brd and frame could this work i wonder.
What if you want them without the architrave?
What type of drill bit was you using to pre drill as got some walnut doors coming up seems like you went through smoothly
Hinge drill bit
Cheers guys
dont the doors have any kind of handles,reason im asking is ,i have bad hands from working down the pit and i personally would struggle to open them????
He does them on another video
@@terencekelly5050 ok thnks mate
What kinda Handel’s can you use on pocket doors??? If you have sunken Handel’s then how do you get it when it’s in the pocket??????
👍
Looking good. What are you going to use as handles?
Great video as always Robin.
I have a question how do I make clean accurate cuts with my table saw and circular saw. Mine are shit ta mate.
Zero clearance inserts (but can be hard to make/install and/or dangerous on table saws), use tape on cuts to help stop tear-out. As mentioned plunge/track saws help but you still get tear-out with those too.
@Steve Diamond thanks I am short on space and money lol I have been thinking about making a track myself
@@heriothandyman3148 thanks I will try the tape also I will invest in some decent blades
Min 11, a magnet or a metal detector if the screws are too deep 😉
Roger was the swear box full at the end of that?
We never swear.
Wat sort of handles do you use on the pocket doors
The magnet won't work with stainless fixings
Hi robin, what do you think I should charge for fitting a similar set up, sim kit, partition, hang doors, slab walls, architraves,pull handles etc, any help appreciated
It's hard to say without seeing the room or location of the partition its height length etc, but you first have the stud frame to work out and build so allow a day for then allow a day to fit the pocket door systems and set up the doors etc, then you have to plasterboard and skim etc then second fix and handles etc, oh and decorations, just the carpentry side is about 4 days, then add for plastering and all.materials timber doors paint etc, hope that helps
Robin will the door furniture leave the doors protruding out of the recess
No they dissapear
@@ukconstruction
One 's' two 'pp'. Lol. Great work though.
Recurring dreams Robin, tell me about it. I'm no expert but I'm sure dreams where you are constantly frustrated are a sure sign of being unsettled about something. Mine ALWAYS involve being away from home and unable to get back, no matter what I do. Have you noticed that you never have a recurring dream about laying on a beach in Barbados drinking a never ending Pina Colada.
Today's word Robin - is Thwangggggg lol
Were are the handles?
The vandals stole the handles, th-cam.com/video/MGxjIBEZvx0/w-d-xo.html
💙👊😎
As beautiful as these are, sliding a door to one side just doesn't seem a natural way to progress from one room to another. At least in one direction one can move forward as the hinged door swings open.
As space savers of course they're idea but here?
Excellent craftsmanship though.
Prefer a standard door
Ravenna Walnut Flushies £500 a pop .... I think i'll swap all my doors out for them this weekend - NOT !
I won't be doing this
Me: freaks out about pet peeve gaps in architrave mitre, nekminit seeing gpo kettle is connected to 😱
and in English?
And "ballet dancer" is rhyming slang for...?
love the content, but 4 sets of ads on a 12 min run?
We don't control that and, to be honest we had no idea it was that much. Good to help the channel though
Robin .. I was wondering whether you are a smoker.?
If you are thinking about the heavy breathing that is coming from the camera mic. Roger is looking through the eyepiece and it close to the mic. We kept both mics on so we could get a bit of conversation.
@@SkillBuilder
Sorry to get personal but it was a straight question.. l really appreciate your channel.. I work in the film/theatre industry as a self employed Propmaker and have a general interest in all craft professions, if I hadn't got lucky thirty years ago I'd would probably have ended up in one of the building trades..
Also think your podcast is great..
Too complicated for me.
Conspicuous consumption..... life is too short
Oright grandad, breathing heavily through your nose?
Better than talking through my arse, no offence.
